Now that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is lastly out within the wild, gamers are discovering all of its cool moments and comedian e-book Easter eggs. However a bunch have encountered one thing rather more sudden: a glitch that turns Spider-Man into slightly white lump of tofu.
It’s not technically tofu per se, however that’s definitely what some gamers suppose it appears like. The unusual bug sees a small dice you would possibly affiliate with early growth prototyping fully substitute the titular superhero’s physique. Spider-Block as some are calling it (me, I’m calling him that) can nonetheless do all of the superb issues the neighborhood web-crawler usually does, like web-slinging via New York and comboing unhealthy guys skyward. The bizarre glitch transforms the expertise from cool comedian e-book stuff to extra-surreal fever dream.
Social media is already stuffed with gamers encountering the dice glitch:
Regardless of the bug’s prevalence, nobody actually appears to be certain precisely what causes it. The tofu slabs simply seem any time both Peter Parker or Miles Morales’ swimsuit mannequin fails to load. Then it’s dice time. You’ll be able to repair it by going again to the swimsuit menu and swapping to a distinct costume. It’s sensible to try this rapidly, too, since there are stories of some cubed gamers falling via the map after their sudden transfigurations. Maybe therein lies a portal to the blockverse, however your greatest wager is simply to reload from the final checkpoint if that occurs.
Thankfully, my 40-hour expertise with Spider-Man 2 was largely bug free, although some gamers have reported sport crashes or often getting caught on components of the setting. Just a few gamers have even reported being unable to play the disc model of the sport in any respect, with installations getting caught at 36 %. Insomniac Video games hasn’t but supplied an official workaround, although the problem doesn’t appear to be too widespread. Hopefully it will get solved quickly so these gamers may expertise the glory of Spider-Block.
